Vander Heidena,b,* aKoch Institute for Integrative Cancer Research, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, MA 02139, USA bDepartment of Medical Oncology, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Boston, MA 02115, USA Abstract Pyruvate kinase is an enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of phosphoenolpyruvate and ADP to pyruvate and ATP in glycolysis and plays a role in regulating cell metabolism. There are four mammalian pyruvate kinase isoforms with unique tissue expression patterns and regulatory properties. The M2 isoform of pyruvate kinase (PKM2) supports anabolic metabolism and is expressed both in cancer and normal tissue. The enzymatic activity of PKM2 is allosterically regulated by both intracellular signaling pathways and metabolites; PKM2 thus integrates signaling and metabolic inputs to modulate glucose metabolism according to the needs of the cell.

CHASSY* AND JOHN THOMPSON Microbiology Section, Laboratory of Microbiology and Immunology, National Institute of Dental Research, Bethesda, Maryland 20205 Received 8 November 1982/Accepted 5 March 1983 Cells ofLactobacillus casei grown in media containing galactose or a metaboliz- able ,-galactoside (lactose, lactulose, or arabinosyl-P-D-galactoside) were in- duced for a galactose-phosphoenolpyruvate-dependent phosphotransferase sys- tem (gal-PTS). This high-affinity system (Km for galactose, 11 ,uM) was inducible in eight strains examined, which were representative of all five subspecies of L. casei. The gal-PTS was also induced in strains defective in glucose- and lactose- phosphoenolpyruvate-dependent phosphotransferase systems during growth on galactose. Galactose 6-phosphate appeared to be the intracellular inducer of the gal-PTS. The gal-PTS was quite specific for D-galactose, and neither glucose, lactose, nor a variety of structural analogs of galactose caused significant inhibition of phosphotransferase system-mediated galactose transport in intact cells. The phosphoenolpyruvate-dependent phosphorylation of galactose in vitro required specific membrane and cytoplasmic components (including enzyme Illgal), which were induced only by growth of the cells on galactose or ,B- galactosides. Extracts prepared from such cells also contained an ATP-dependent galactokinase which converted galactose to galactose 1-phosphate. Our results demonstrate the separate identities of the gal-PTS and the lactose-phosphoenol- pyruvate-dependent phosphotransferase system in L.

  • The Phorbol Ester-Dependent Activator of the Mitogen-Activated Protein

The enzyme contains two remotely located reaction centers: the nucleotide partial reaction takes place at the N-terminal domain, and the PEP/pyruvate partial reaction takes place at the C-terminal domain. A central domain, tethered to the N- and C-terminal domains by two closely associated linkers, contains a phosphorylatable histidine residue (His455). The molecular architecture suggests a swiveling domain mechanism that shuttles a phosphoryl group between the two reaction centers. In an early structure of PPDK from Clostridium symbiosum, the His445-containing domain (His domain) was positioned close to the nucleotide binding domain and did not contact the PEP/pyruvate- binding domain. Here, we present the crystal structure of a second conformational state of C. symbiosum PPDK with the His domain adjacent to the PEP-binding domain. The structure was obtained by producing a three-residue mutant protein (R219E/E271R/S262D) that introduces repulsion between the His and nucleotide-binding domains but preserves viable interactions with the PEP/pyruvate-binding domain.

  • The Transport of Carbohydrates by a Bacterial Phosphotransferase System
    The Transport of Carbohydrates by a Bacterial Phosphotransferase System SAUL ROSEMAN From the McCollum-PrattInstitute and the Department of Biology,Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, Maryland 21218 ABSTRACT The components and properties of a phosphoenolpyruvate: glu- cose phosphotransferase system are reviewed, along with the evidence implicating this system in sugar transport across bacterial membranes. Some possible physiological implications of sugar transport mediated by the phospho- transferase system are also considered. This paper is concerned with a bacterial phosphotransferase system; its properties, and evidence indicating it to be responsible for sugar transport in bacterial cells will be briefly reviewed, and some speculations will be offered concerning the physiological implications of sugar transport via this system. The discovery of the phosphotransferase system resulted from our long- standing interest in the biosynthesis of carbohydrate containing macro- molecules (1). The 9-carbon sugar acid, sialic acid, is a frequent component of these macromolecules, and enzymatic degradation of one of the sialic acids (N-acetylneuraminic acid) was found to give pyruvate and N-acetyl-D- mannosamine (2). Studies on the metabolism of the latter sugar led to the discovery of a specific kinase that catalyzes the reaction shown in Fig. 1 ; this kinase is widely distributed in animal tissues (3). Since certain bacterial cells synthesize polymers of N-acetylneuraminic acid, or can metabolize N-acetyl- D-mannosamine, extracts of these cells were examined for the kinase. The sugar was not phosphorylated by the reaction shown in Fig. 1, but it was phosphorylated when phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) was substituted for ATP. The bacterial system, designated PEP:glycose phosphotransferase system, or simply phosphotransferase system, was found to catalyze the reaction shown in Fig.

SCOPES Department ofBiochemistry, La Trobe University, Bundoora, Victoria 3083, Australia (Received 8 March 1978) 1. Affinity elution chromatography was used to purify phosphoglycerate kinase from a variety of sources. The choice of buffer pH for the chromatography was made according to the relative electrophoretic mobility of the enzyme from the species concerned. 2. Outlines of the methods used to isolate the enzyme from over 20 sources are presented. The enzyme was purified from the muscle tissue of a variety of mammals, fish and birds, from liver of several animals, from yeast, Escherichia coli, and plant leaves. The more acidic varieties of the enzymes were purified by conventional gradient elution from ion-exchangers as affinity elution procedures were not applicable. 3. The structural and kinetic parameters investigated show that phosphoglycerate kinase is evolutionarily a highly conservative enzyme; there were few differences in properties regardless of source or function (glycolytic, gluconeogenic or photosynthetic). 4. A detailed comparison of the enzyme preparations purified from bovine muscle and bovine liver failed to detect any significant differences between them; the evidence indicates that they are genetically identical.
